Notes
February 2026 news reports Clean Air Act violations and fines ($19M), indicating regulatory compliance issues and operational constraints. January 2026 news documents storm-related mechanical issues affecting the 172,000-bpd refinery. These issues suggest reduced capacity operations and maintenance activities, not complete shutdown. The database's March 2026 fire/explosion reference cannot be verified in provided news articles, so February status takes precedence.
